Polygonal designs and intersections

I created this with ellipse tool and border. I manually placed another circle on bigger one and erased the arc of the bigger circle.
Is there better/faster more accurate  way to do this with ofnuts path tools?

With several functions in ofn-path-to-shape:

• Create a left-to-right line (this will be the line between the center of the two circles)
  
• Use it as the radius of a circle (Shapes>Segment>Circle)
  
• Create a small segment, that starts where the first ends: Shapes>Segments>Transform segments>Resize and use Start=100% and End=80% (100% should be on the Start for the next operation)
  
• Use that new segment as the radius of a circle.
  
• In the path tool, select the bigger circle and click on it to make its anchors appear
  
• Zoom in and Ctrl-click where the big circle intersects the small one to add two anchor to the big circle
  
• Ctrl-Shift-click the anchor of the big circle at the center of the small to remove it, and then Ctrl-Shift-click the segment of the big circle between the two anchors you add to remove it.
